Lubricate the camshaft journals and lobes with
Lubriplate 105.
Position the camshaft/cam gear assembly into the
cylinder block up to the last journal.
Refer to section 1 for assembly of cam gear on the
camshaft.
Install the camshaft. While pushing in slightly, rotate
the camshaft and carefully work the camshaft
through the camshaft bushings. As each camshaft
journal passes through a bushing, the camshaft will
drop slightly and the camshaft lobes will catch on the
bushings. Rotating the camshaft will free the lobe
from the bushing and allow the camshaft to be
installed.
Before the camshaft gear is engaged with the
crankshaft gear, check the camshaft for ease of
rotation. When installed correctly, the camshaft will
rotate freely.
Lubricate the thrust plate with Lubriplate 105.
Align the timing marks as illustrated and install the
thrust washer.
